River Test : The worlds most famous fly fishing river.

Dry fly fishing originated here on the River Test in Hampshire, England. Even today it is still regarded as one of the best fly fishing rivers by fisherman all over the world. Only down the road for me, I made two trips to the River today and got chatting to a couple of old boys fishing, was thoroughly relaxing. so much so I may go back tomorrow.

Avebury Standing Stones 2009 : Not many shots (family took precedence), but all shots are my first HDR processed images using Photomatix Pro.  Most HDR images I've seen appear garish and over processed in my view (fine if that's your thing though), I hope these come across as more subtle and for me when viewed next to the RAW images provide a much better representation of the actual fading light on that January afternoon.
